My work exists at the intersection of trauma recovery, neurodivergence burnout, grief, nervous system healing, and the often complicated journey of finding your way back to yourself.
Many people who find their way here may have spent years searching for answers.
I navigated complex trauma, burnout, family scapegoating, medical gaslighting, grief, and the long process of rebuilding a life after adversity. Along the way, I discovered something important:
Many of us are not broken. But there are many of us.
We’re carrying experiences that were never fully understood.
Today, I help people make sense of those experiences through education, coaching, advocacy, practical tools, and lived experience. My work blends trauma-informed learning, nervous system regulation, Internal Family Systems concepts, neurodiversity-LGBTQ-affirming perspectives, and years of self-advocacy.
One of my greatest strengths has always been translating complexity into something people can understand and use. I believe healing often begins when we finally have language for what we’ve lived through.
Here you’ll find essays, resources, research, book recommendations, practical tools, and honest conversations about healing, belonging, capacity, and what it means to be deeply human.
My framework is simple:
• Arriving at neurological safety first.
• Self-compassion is cultivated, not assumed.
• Capacity matters more than force.
• Healing happens in connection with a trusted witness, not isolation.
Tapping into resources and insight, learning that I wasn’t the only one struggling was how a deeper recovery took hold.

Ai use Disclosure:
I am both Autistic and ADHD. I also struggle with dyslexia (especially while recovering from burnout) as an accessibility tool to help with editing, graphic design, data visualization, formatting, and organizing complex project ideas into digestible works. It allows me to create resources & visuals that would otherwise require much higher skills and support beyond my individual capacity.
